CHRIS WOOD snatched a dramatic point against Tottenham as Spurs' Wembley hoodoo continues.

Just when it looked as though Spurs had ended their Wembley curse, Robbie Brady's brilliant ball picked out new signing Wood and the Clarets' £15m new signing fired the ball into the bottom corner for an incredible equaliser.

Harry Kane’s August jinx continued as the ex-Millwall ace missed a host of opportunities for Mauricio Pochettino's side.

The England striker and two-times Golden Boot winner has never scored a Premier League goal in the first month of the campaign.

And he will be left feeling frustrated with his performance against the Clarets.

Tottenham just edged the early pressure but Heung-min Son blazed their first chance so far over the bar he would not have looked out of place at Saturday’s Rugby League Challenge Cup Final, which had taken place on the hallowed turf 24 hours earlier.

Pochettino said he did not expect the pitch to suffer as a result and he was correct as the bowling green-like surface was once again perfect.

It could certainly not be blamed for a dismal first-half when Spurs looked a shadow of the side that ran opponents ragged on their way to finishing second in the Prem last term.

WHAT THEY SAID

Burnley striker Chris Wood: "It is special because we got a great point away from home against a really good side. We are glad we have taken something. We created a lot of chances second half and deserved to take something.

"Everybody knows the character at Burnley. We all work hard. We need to take on from last season and push on.

"We can improve on last season. It will take hard work. But we are not afraid of that."
